William Henry Steeves' brother Gilbert had earlier moved to Liverpool, England to handle the overseas business since their Brokerage was doing so well. After William's death, his wife took their six children and moved to England as well. Because of this, all of William Henry Steeves' descendants are in England. His great-grand-daughter Edith, for example, married Evelyn Francis Edward Seymour, the 17th Duke of Somerset. His son, Percy Hamilton Seymour, was a Steeves descendant and the 18th Duke of Somerset (photo by Allen Warren).​​​​
